If you search around there is alot of info available. Main problem is that the thermostat housing,distributor and throttle body point towards the firewall. Alot of people change the thermostat housing to something else that works, cut a hole for the distributor, and make a plate to flip the intake around. Its not too horrible of a job, its just that you lose your heat. You can convert it over to coil pack ignition and run a mega squirt to remove the distributor. Like i said if you search on here and also take a look at Mazdabscene, and probetalk you should find everything you need.
